new tool,  are you sure ?

if it's as the mig-15...

[kotey 427]

It will be new tool - downscale of previouse 1\48 model. Zvezda now have wery rare moulds for 1\72 Pe-2 model, but not use its many year.

My money is on the old Italeri mold, which may have been the old Zvezda mold. The world turns.

[Tiger331 1,369]

If it is, indeed, a downscaled version of their existing 1:48 scale kit, then modellers of the smaller scale are in for a treat. Just because its downscaled will not mean any real loss of detail etc....judging by their Mil Mi-24 Hind family. Also likely to be a reasonable price too

[Hornet133 147]

The Italeri 1/72 Pe-2 was indeed just a reboxing under the tie up that they have, of the Zvezda kit that was realised well over a decade ago.

 

Hopefully the one they are going to release next year actually IS a scale down of the 1/48 one.

Confirmed in catalog 2019

It would be nice to have a new-mould Pe-2, something between the simplicity of the old Zvezda kit and the Hobby Boss Easy Assembly kit, and the complexity of the UM kits. Since these are 3D renderings, I suppose the kit was designed in 3D. Thank you for posting these pictures! Now Zvezda can move on to a new-mould Il-4...

 

Regards,

I recall that IPMS Deutschland's Nurenberg show news list had this announcement as well.

I'm pretty sure it will be a scale down of their 48 kit.

Much looking forward to this release!

 

 

[kotey 427]

Yes, its rework 1-48 models.

The Pe-2 as UM kit looks very good, maybe new Zvezda will be better?  But still I miss a modern DB3 kit... Is it possible that it will be one day on market?

Or even a less-difficult early Pe2, or Pe3?

Very nice! Their old kit wasn't a bad kit (often sold under Italeri's name), but this one looks much more detailed, and no doubt has engraved panel lines. I've definitely been wanting a 'Peshka' between the simplicity of the old Zvezda mould and the complicated, if very-detailed UM kits. Now Zvezda can turn their attention to a new-mould Il-4...

 

Regards,

Superb news, I'm already making room on my workbench!

This release is much appreciated, and I'd also like to see a new 1/72 Il-4.

 

[sroubos 923]

I've always thought this was a very sleek, good-looking aircraft but I've never been convinced to get the older kits. This one will be mine.

Exactly my thoughts!

 

I hope for few non-russian decals.

[kotey 427]

Inside box - 4 USSR markings and 1 non- USSR marking, after release i'll made some work we Begemot will release big decals with many non-USSR markings.

[MiG-Mech 126]

Sounds well !!! 

[LN-KEH 120]

Could Begemot consider including markings for the PE 2FT under restoration in Norway?

 

Also a good selection of cockpit pictures in the links below:

[kotey 427]

All marking will be the same as 1-48 - http://www.begemotdecals.ru/showpos.php?lang=2&id=162

We were print instruction for both scale in one time.

[Hornet133 147]

Brilliant...I have been waiting two years for a 1/72 scale version of sheet 48-41.
